Hi all,

Recently, I noticed that whenever I try to charge my macbook in a library, it wouldn't charge. it would say the battery is already charged at 97% for example. However, at home, when I plug it in, it would charge until it reached 100%.

Is it suppose to function like this?

Thanks!

Yep. My battery is reading 97% right now, while the charging icon indicates that it's charged. It fluctuates between 96-100%, with each value having pretty much the same chance of being displayed at any give time while it's plugged in and turned on.

If the battery is 96% or more sometimes the macbook will not charge. If you let it drain to 94% or less and then plug it in at the library it will fully charge.
